Coach Pitterson-Nattie, stated that, “the team has suffered a major setback with the possible omission of Romelda Aiken from the team, but the team is a good combination of experience in key positions; and youth, who are fearless, but respectful of their opponents. We anticipate a tough but competitive series.”
